Reply #17: When I told my doctor that my son had a fever for a full week

[pnwmom]

after his DTP, my doctor said that that couldn't be because of the vaccine because the vaccine doesn't cause that adverse effect. So, of course, he didn't file a report on it, and I was too dumb at the time to press the point. The next time, my son had seizures. (And not due to a high fever, since his only reached 102.)

So the adverse effects reported are probably greatly understated, since doctors are filtering them through their idea of what is a "real" adverse effect and what isn't.
